Need help getting value from table based on oldest date

Hello all,

As the title says, I need to get a value from a table based on the oldest record in the table.  For simplicity, there is a date column (connected to my calendar dimension) and a value column.

 

I've tried using FIRSTDATE, DATESINPERIOD, etc. but I'm not getting the results I want.  Any thoughts?

 

Thanks!

Could provide more information. Maybe a screengrab of the data you're working with and what result you'd expect to get out of your measure?

you would likely use the =CALCULATE(MIN('Table'[Date]),FILTER().....) function but  hard to say without more information.
